Best of ‘08: TV Series
Since the last episode of my series aired on Christmas Eve (Doctor Who, “The Next Doctor”), I think it’s just and appropriate that I should take a look back across an eventful year in Television. Now, I watch a lot of TV, and by that I mean TV series, especially TV series with a fantastic [...]

Quickie: Mad Men, Season 2
Remember how much I liked the first season? Well, I gave it a weak 9/10, and have since then ranked Mad Men as one of my top ten shows of all time. So yeah, I was a fan going into this second season of AMC’s award winning drama (and when I say “award winning”, I [...]
The Wire, Season 1
This is a show I’ve been meaning to get around to for quite some time now. The first time I remember hearing about it was some three years ago when I was watching a program about “the arts” on NRK 1 (a state-funded Norwegian channel) where the host asked what TV show everyone’s been missing [...]
The Venture Bros. (Season 1-3)
In addition to my regular diet of TV series and films, I can occasionally appreciate a small dosage of cartoons. I watched a whole lot of the American Cartoon Network’s regular programming when I was a toddler (part of the reason I was practically bi-lingual at the age of six), but stopped that habit when [...]
The West Wing
Sorry about the sporadic posting, guys. I have no excuse really aside from a sudden lack of inspiration and the fact that school’s back, that I’m working in the weekends and that I have seven cute puppies that desperately need cuddling (when they’re not trying to hamstring me with their newly-discovered appetite for human flesh). [...]
The West Wing, Season 1 & 2
I like my shows smart, and I like it when the shows think that the viewer is smart, too. I like my dialogue quick, witty and, of course, funny. The characters should be well-developed, yet still quite mysterious so that you still want to learn more about ‘em. If you’ve got all those ingredients and [...]
Rescue Me, Seasons 1-4
Normally I tend to write up reviews of every single season of a TV series, but with “Rescue Me” I wanted to try a different tack. “Rescue Me” isn’t such a well known show as say, “Lost” or “Dexter”, and the seasons are relatively short, running only thirteen hour-long episodes compared to the normal twenty-two [...]
“Lost” So Far
(Those palm trees sure have some freaky looking shadows…)
Ah, the plot thickens! Or rather, the plot’s so thick that no one can quite figure out what is any longer. Four seasons and a shitload of more or less inexplicable events into the show, I’m kinda sitting here, *hoping* that the writers know where they’re going, [...]
Lost, Season 2
The funny thing about “Lost” is that, while the show came heavily recommended from those who’re still following it, they always followed up with an addendum: “Keep in mind though that you’ll have to slog it through the second season”.
There seems to be a peculiar, yet near-universal agreement that the follow-up the first season of [...]
